Nominated Post: SH3VoiceCommand v1.0 Official Release

====================== SH3VoiceCommand v1.0 Official Release ======================


After nearly six months development and much time preparation in advance. I am proudly announcing that SH3VoiceCommand v1.0 is officially released.

SH3VoiceCommand is a speech to command interface dedicated to support Silent Hunter game series. It uses state of the art AI speech recognition engine and offers a much greater complexity and functionality which surpass its' predecessor and peers.

It offers these following features:

• 🎈 Lightweight: Only adds about 20MB RAM in the 32bit section.
• 📣Responsive: The command delay can be as low as 500MS with proper setup & optimization.
• 👶Independent: No dependency on any third-party software or MOD (except the OS and graphic card packages).
• 🎮Integrated: Completely merged with sh3.exe running on parallel thread which has no interference with users' keyboard & mouse inputs
• 🔠Multilingual: Supports 99 languages (current only configured for English and German, finetuned for German).
• 💡 Awareness: Aware of players' current coordinates heading speed and depth etc., and act accordingly.
• 🔢Numeracy: It can interpret any number from 0 to 1,999,999.99 in English and German
• 🎓Intelligence: Able to comprehend basic arithmetic symbols and operators like + - * / sin() cos() tan() pi and e in the configuration.
• 🤨Tolerable: Allows small deviation from standard command phrase to achieve higher catch rate
• 📎 Flexible: User can add, remove, change any voice command as they like in the config file
• 🤗Trainable: The language models can be finetuned to improve accuracy and adjust to personal accent

System Architecture


Known Issues:

• Everyone has unique voice characteristics. It is likely each individual player needs to construct their own version config and language models. This may require a lot of time and dedication.
• Due to decimal rounding and ocean current flow the confirmed command from the crew and actual command from user may have ±1 difference.
• Depending on the user's graphic card performance and 3D workload the respond from transcriber can be slow. If this happens, switching on a live streaming application or a screen recording application can greatly improves the processing speed.
• Upon exiting the game you might encounter invalid memory access error, e.g. exception on 0x5D9104F9 (C0000005, EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION), this is caused by SDL2.dll not being unloaded in the correct sequence. Simply ignore this warning because the game process has been terminated anyway.
• (Personally, I am not very satisfied with the workaround fix above but in current conditions it is the easiest way without changing sh3.exe itself. If you have any recommendations, please contact me through subsim messages, any help is appreciated)
• If game crashed while using SH3VoiceCommand the share memory might be leaked and can't be retrieved again. The transcriber will indicate "Share Memory NOT Ready" and exit after several attempts. You might need to restart windows in order to load SH3VoiceCommand again.
• Some of the command phrases may not be very accurate, have grammar mistakes or even missing. If you have any recommendations, please feel free to leave a comment under the publication page of SH3VoiceCommand on subsim. Also state your reference regarding where is your source of information.

Hi mate!
Glad to read you, hope you're fine!!
Yep, the request was about permission to use your models (ships, weapons and planes) in order to create a reworked Royal Navy fleet, thank you sooo much! :salute:

Here's a couple of examples of what i'm doing, and why i need your permission:

Leander class CL:






Arethusa class CL:



Both of them are based on your previous ships!
Reworks for models include new details (like portholes, doors, stairs..) glass windows, rotating radar\rangefinders\torpedo launchers etc.
Both are showed with really basic textures, not intended for release.

Meanwhile, flush_deck is working on new textures sets for them, based on ww2 real camouflage schemes, with shadow effects and details; here's an example, based on my old D class cruiser..

D class light CL:



Hope you like them :yeah:
Thank you again!

Moin ...

... I took a look at the cap of the deckguns (LSH 88, 105)

... it flickered down to the right with every shot and then back again.

... have now changed that ...

... “Occupy deckgun” ... after 13 sec it is gone, leave deckgun ... back on ...

I think it's better this way, nobody has put the cap on after every shot

Dieselglock has made a Best of SUBSIM nomination.
Nomination Category:

SH3 Modder

Nomination basis: This a fantastic mod. The research behind the mod is outstanding. This mod adds a huge upgrade to the realism aspect of conducting night surface attacks. Dont leave port without it.
Forum: SHIII Mods Workshop

Nominated Member: rik007
Nominated Post: Rik007: SH-3 Night surface attack project [REL]

I feel I'm not 20 anymore. So I'm a slow modder and for years SH-3 didnot have my attention anymore but everything came back a year ago when I upgraded my video card...
On an average I now worked a few hours per week on this project which delivers an enabler. Basically it could be a breakthrough or a failure: who knows?
For me it is a breakthrough and I hope it will be the same for you all. I create some movies this week to explain it and some demo's.

First I explain the project itself and my experiments into night surface attacks and what I think of it:



Then an example of a night surface attack in 'Otto Kretschmer-style', unprecedented I think:



Then a sample of the wheather transition bug which is in most environment mods. The wheather will suddenly switch around 00:26:



And the version with a correct - smooth wheather transition:



Then a demo with Northern Lights and detection:



I want to thank:
- Hsie for his exellent hardcode mod. If you read this: a few of your discoveries in your assembly files I re-used!
- hughesjr for his basic voice attack profile (unreachable on Steam)
- Jerry Mason and crew

Here you find the site with the u-boot journals:

https://www.uboatarchive.net/

Go to U-boat KTB for the logs.

Update 29-8-2024: Release 1.20 has arrived
This is what has changed compared to 1.19:

- Date/time bug:
There are multiple date/time variable in sh3. One of them controls the moon and the environment and one is the current date/time you see on the watches etc. The first one is not correct after a save/reload. After a reload this date is set to the start date/time of the current patrol or in case of a first patrol in a campaign this will be start date/time of the campaign. What is expected is that after a safe/reload sh3 should set this date/time to the current date/time.

The effect of this bug is that every time you reload a patrol your environment including the moon phase/position will jump back to the start of the patrol instead of to the current date/time.

The fix implemented in the moon mod for this is to overwrite the date/time for the environment with the current game date/time to make sure the calculations are done with the correct date and the moon and environment are shown as expected.

- SH-5 Moon mod settings for GWX 3.0
Profile for users who use GWX.

Of course I like to thank Fubar295, Dieselglock, JohnCarterOfMars, Doolar & Fitzcarraldo for their help during the testing!

Please find below the link to the project which contains instructions how to install or upgrade. Please read the installation instructions carefully.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/f920w...v1.20.zip/file

Please consult the documentation that comes with the mod but for your convenience:

For people who have never installed the Night surface attack project:

- Add all 1.20 mods from the zip-archive to your MODS folder
- run the patcher
- Enable all 1.20 mods using JSGME

For people who switch from 1.19 to 1.20:

- Disable all 1.19 mods using JSGME
- Remove all 1.19 mods from your MODS folder
- Add all 1.20 mods from the zip-archive to your MODS folder
- run the patcher
- Enable all 1.20 mods using JSGME

Run the patcher:
- Use your explorer to go into your MODS folder. From there go into the folder: SH-5 Patcher.
- Start Sh5PatchExe.bat, follow the instructions ("Press any key to continue") and if you get “Patch done succesfully, you can enable the mod: SH-5 Moon mod" with JSGME!” the patching is done and the "SH-5 Moon mod" is ready to be enabled with JSGME

Fix for Windows 11 and improved environment date handling.

• This will fix the CTD in the moon mod when running Windows 11 with KB5044030 or KB5044033 (.net framework) installed
• Also this fix contains an improved handling of the environment date bug.

For details of the latter: https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...&postcount=116

How to add the patch for Windows 11 KB5044030 or KB5044033 on top of v1.20?

- unzip the "SH-5 Fixes for v1.20.zip" archive
- move the 2 mods inside the "SH-5 Fixes for v1.20" folder into your JSGME MODS folder
- In JSGME enable "SH-5 Fix for Windows 11 KB504403X and improved environment date for v1.20"
- this mod should be enabled on top of (after) the v1.20 "SH-5 Moon mod"
- if you use Stiebler's wheather fix you should enable "SH-5 Moon mod optional - Stiebler's wheather fix with improved environment date for v1.20" after "SH-5 Fix for Windows 11 KB504403X and improved environment date for v1.20".

You can download the fix here:

Super job Chef :Kaleun_Cheers: As usual.

So nice to have finaly a good Nelson class for SH

Just few words to explain the delay for the great units from my dear friend VonDos.

My S3D is off for several month now, and I don't know why..:hmmm:
I've tried all the tricks to solve the Problem but nothing work..

So I need to reinstal all my computer with XP operating system to see if it could be back. This is my last option so I cross finger and hope it can work again.

But for know I can't push on the texture work. It's the reason why VonDos delay the release of all those models

Sorry for that, I make my best to solve that quickly :Kaleun_Salute:
